Abstract

Selon un aspect, la présente invention concerne une unité de séparation d'hydrogène qui comprend un empilement de cellules électrochimiques qui comprend un empilement de séparateurs situé entre un côté anode et un côté cathode ; un conduit de gaz mixte pour recevoir un courant de gaz mixte du côté anode ; un conduit de retrait à l'anode pour retirer un courant riche en hélium à partir du côté anode ; et un conduit de retrait à la cathode pour retirer un courant riche en hydrogène à partir du côté cathode. L'empilement de séparation comprend une pluralité de cellules électrochimiques, dont chacune comprend une membrane échangeuse de protons située entre une anode et une cathode. La membrane échangeuse de protons peut comprendre un cation. L'empilement de séparation peut être un empilement de séparation en cascade.
